Stormwater retention ponds can effectively control pollutant runoff during storms.
The study looked at using a stormwater retention pond to manage pollutant runoff. Researchers monitored water quality and quantity in the pond during storms for four years. They created a simulation model based on the data. The results showed that the retention pond could effectively control pollutant runoff with proper operation. The simulation model could help find the best way to operate the pond for managing pollutants. This information can improve how we manage pollution in our environment.
